It was a Saturday, and I wanted to catch up with my sleep, but the alarm went off at 7.00am and I knew I had to get up and pack to leave for the Comica Comiket where I had a small table.
My deliver from Awesome Merchandise had arrived just the day before.
It was going to be a one and half hour journey to Bishopsgate Institute hall near Liverpool Street Station.

When I arrived at my table I saw that they had auto-corrected my name!
A bit of black felt tip.. and voila! Problem solved.
All set up!
Throughout the day artists like Tom Gauld, Simone Lia and Philippa Rice did live drawings which was projected on screen. I recently bought Paul Gauld's comic Goliath. He and Simone will be talking at Laydeez do Comics tomorrow.
Philippa Rice, creator of My Cardboard Life, works in collage and it was fascinating to watch her in process. She uses the craft knife freehand and so quickly... like a pencil!
It was a great day but sitting for seven hours can be surprisingly very exhausting! On the train ride back home I just sat back and enjoyed the spaceship like clouds outside the window.

It was great when friends stopped by. Elena also volunteered at the Comiket Cafe that day.
